Let us see where everyone stands on this one:

You are in the small blind. 4 Players left, $30+3 SNG, blinds are 200/400. Bubble play has been tight for about 15 hands. You are facing an all in by the button whom you have outchipped, you both outchip the big blind.

Chip counts are as follows, blinds subtracted from stacks already:

UTG: 3250 (FOLDS)
BTN: 1400 Raises all in (1400)
SB(hero): 2150 (200)
BB: 600 (400)

The button player hasn't made one call in the past 30 hands but has picked up blinds here and there by pushing. The only hand shown down was 3 rounds ago when he pushed with 99 from the button, the short stacked big blind called with AQo and doubled up. Including that hand he has raised all in 2 of the last 3 opportunities to open from the button.

It is 1200 for you to call out of your remaining 2150. Losing leaves you with 950. You are getting 5-3 on your money if the bb folds, 13-6 if he calls. How do you play the following hands:

I call the first 3 and fold the last 3, off the top of my head.
